This thesis proposes novel ways both to represent the static surfaces, and to parameterize their deformations. This can be used both by automated algorithms for efficient 3–D shape reconstruction, and by graphics designers for editing and animation. Deform ...
JET plasmas with reverse magnetic field feature a different SOL flow than those with normal field. The observed carbon fuelling efficiency from injecting methane gas was similar in reverse and normal field. EDGE2D modeling used an externally applied force ...
This thesis deals with the numerical modeling and simulation of granular media with large populations of non-spherical particles. Granular media are highly pervasive in nature and play an important role in technology. They are present in fields as diverse ...
Empirical estimates indicate that the transient divertor power load induced by type-I ELMs in the standard H-mode ITER scenario might result in intolerably short target life times. Significant experimental effort has been put on the exploration of recipes ...
Microbes form colonies to pool resources and better cope with changes in environmental conditions including nutrient availability and hydration status. The excretion of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) plays an important role in forming colony stru ...
A numerical method is proposed to evaluate gradients on non-uniform, non-orthogonal, three-dimensional structured meshes of hexahedra, as commonly used by finite volume methods. The method uses isoparametric transforms on tetrahedra to evaluate the gradien ...
In this work, we explore a framework for the sparse representation of video sequences by means of spatio-temporal functions able to exploit the 2D nature of images as well as the temporal smoothness often associated to object trajectories. Decomposition ov ...
Three-dimensional (3D) electron microscopy (3DEM) aims at the determination of the spatial distribution of the Coulomb potential of macromolecular complexes. The 3D reconstruction of a macromolecule using single-particle techniques involves thousands of 2D ...
We present a method for combining a number of Support Vector Machines trained independently in the eigenface space and we apply it to face class modeling. We first train several ...
New digital technologies are challenging the traditions of the architectural design methodology, the relationship between context and design, and the dependency on skilled workmanship for the fabrication of beautiful and complex architecture. Intellectuall ...
